Today's sale will follow an exclusive pre-sale for O2 priority customers, which has sold out its allocation.

SAFC’s commercial director, Gary Hutchinson, said: “There is a huge amount of excitement and interest around this concert, which has been reflected in the unprecedented demand for tickets during the pre-sale period.

“With the remaining tickets on sale, we would advise fans to book their tickets as soon as they can as this is set to be the must-see show of 2016.”

Fans are advised to secure their tickets as soon as possible and can purchase in-person from the Stadium of Light ticket office, which will be selling general admission tickets, affording pitch standing /unreserved Tier 1 seating or through the approved ticket agencies.
